What Readers Have to Say about Doug’s Previous Guide, Canon 5D Mark III Experience:

Best reference book for Canon 5D Mk III – Well written and easy to understand. This book really helps one to be able to take advantage of all the features of the Canon 5D Mk III. A must have book for anyone new to Canon 5D.
-N.D.

Excellent ebook – This ebook is first-class, and this author knows his stuff about Canon cameras. He cuts to the chase, and gets right to the heart of the important matters. I learned a lot and I learned it very quickly indeed – which I am now putting to good use with my 5D3. Highly recommended.
-S. Walker

Will Save You A Month On The Learning Curve – This book clearly and practically walks the reader through every step of setting up and using the 5D3 for the first time. A wonderfully well-organized book, it explains every feature and setting on the camera with recommendations on optimal setup choices and the reasoning behind each recommendation. Well-selected photos taken with the 5D3 make each concept crystal clear with no room for ambiguity or confusion. It is remarkable to me how the author manages not only to explain the complex feature set of the camera in an easy-to-follow manner, but actually teaches the fundamentals of exposure, composition and efficient use of the camera in a totally compelling and effective manner. Whether you are a novice or experienced photographer, this book will impart a huge amount of information quickly and you will save yourself weeks on the learning curve in just a few hours.
-Robert

Simplifies without technical jargon! – Douglas Klostermann has the unique ability to explain in very readable, easy-to-follow directions how to operate every facet of the Canon 5D Mark III. This is definitely worth purchasing as a companion to the Canon 5D Mark III and the camera’s manual.
-Alan

I learned so many things that I really didn’t realize that the camera was capable of – The printed manual that came with the Canon 5D Mk III was confusing and more often than not, left me scratching my head. What a pleasure it was to find and read such an intelligent and useful guide to the camera. Although I’ve had several Canon DSRLs, and am familiar with the menus, I learned so many things that I really didn’t realize that the camera was capable of. I would highly recommend the e-book to anyone who has the camera.
-Martin M.

A must have – This is the best camera manual I ever bought – Incredibly clear and simple to understand. Laid out logically, easy to follow. It’s more of a field guide that gives you answers at the drop of a dime. Buy this, look at the manual that comes with the camera and you’ll see what I mean. Do I love this manual? Yes!’
-Chaz

Like a life line when you really need one – I would highly recommend this ebook to anyone who either buys or is considering buying the Canon 5D Mk III. This ebook has been a genuinely valuable resource for me. Compared to my 40D, this was a really complex camera – the complexity of the features was mind boggling for me at the time, not any more. Doug has a talent for putting things in a clear, easily understood fashion. He goes through each parameter and explains how it works and how the features work together. He gives real world examples and even offers recommendations on how to get started. I think he has done an admirable job of making this tool easy to use and sped up my learning tremendously.
-R. Richards

Great e book – It is wonderfully written and worth it’s weight in gold. It is written in such a way as to be understood by even the most novice to the seasoned professional.
-Jeri

This book is the only guide I need – Well written, detailed enough to answer questions that were not well covered in the manual, and full of helpful suggestions about camera setup and use. I was planning to buy one of the (other) books when they came out, but I don’t intend to now. This book is the only guide I need. It is a great value, and very timely.
-Pat L.

Superb Guide to the 5D Mark III – An excellent guide to an excellent camera. Clear and consise. A great tool for budding photographer as well as the seasoned pro. A sure way to get the most out of your camera.
-Mark S.
